  1. Seeing the current thread on customised lids I was wondering if anyone has or could be bothered to do a paint job on their saws? I had a quick look on google and found these:001_rolleyes:
  2. Seeing those barge boards reminded me of this little vid I posted a while back. Well worth watching:thumbup1: http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/woodcraft-forum/30940-cleaving-logs-viking-style.html
  3. Came across this today and thought worthy of sharing. Thinking With My Hands: A tree for all seasons.
  4. Does anyone have current contact details for Sefton Council's contractors? I've googled them but it just has their last site address. Thought it would be easier on here rather than get passed around depts within the council. Cheers, Si
  5. yup, squirrel pox:sneaky2: They also eat many of the reds food sources before they ripen, which makes it harder for the native reds to find available foods. This may be a contributing factor (stress) in succumbing to the pox. Si
  6. I so want to get there one of these days. May be next year my youngest will be old enough to warrant the trip down.
  7. Don't know how I missed this, very sad to hear. He sorted me out a few times with wood and was always very helpful. He was a great character. RIP
  8. Oh no, I'm sorry to here of this. I only met him a couple of times, he'd really go out of his way to help. Very sad news, what happened?
  9. Not my area but don't you need to use a froe with a cleaving break to control the split, rotating the branch so that you can force the split back to centre before it runs off.
  10. I reckon that's probably enough now, the OP was clearly just trying to make a living as a tree sturgeon:sneaky2:
  11. Never witnessed such a comm-ocean over a silly spelling mistake.
  12. No play school today for the youngest so woefully trying to multi task with ordering materials for the week ahead and potty training! AGH! gotta go...........
  13. Great find, great sculpture:thumbup1:
  14. Nice job Rob:001_smile: A heart shaped face would look great if you could get one.
  15. Kim you're shop link to folksy sends you to etsy mate:001_tongue:
  16. Very nice, love the mouse. That would make a lot of kids very happy.
  17. Does anyone know if they'll bring out a rear handle version to compete with Stihl's 200/ 201?
  18. This could be worth a try.U.S. National Arboretum: Gardens: Bonsai Lime Sulphur
  19. Hi John, nice to hear from you. Sorry I've only just seen your post mate. Thanks I may well take you up on that. Can you pm your details to me, I never got your number last time. Cheers, Si
  20. Ta for the logs Rob, top man:thumbup: Still after 1,1/2' x 3' logs though if anyone has or cuts some. Cheers, Si
  21. Oh yes ha ha. You're closer than I thought. I'm ferrying the kids about first thing but could be at yours 12 ish if that suits you? Cheers, Si
  22. Cheers Rob, yes mate I'll call you tomorrow for the address. Si
  23. Hi folks, I've put word out locally but can anyone on here near to me (Liverpool)supply me with some hardwood logs? I'm doing a demo for a local arts trail in a month and thought I'd bash out some kiddies chairs and stuff. Ideal size would be about 15" diameter by 30" Thanks in advance, Si
